SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:SoConDi
DESCRIPTION:Linguistic research on media focuses primarily on production of linguistic features in radio\, television\, and film. Less research deals with perception of regional and social dialects in fictional media. This dissertation aims to fill that gap by examining the role fictional representations of dialect use on television might play in language attitudes. It will extend the study of social cognition and perception in linguistic media research by testing whether linguistic stereotypes primed by media representations are extended to a non-media speaker of a dialect and whether explicit knowledge that an actor is performing a dialect as a native or non-native speaker affects attitudes. The three main goals of the project are to (1) complement and augment research on language attitudes via media by empirically testing assumptions about media and language attitudes\, (2) provide a baseline study of explicit and implicit attitudes in language\, and (3) explore whether viewer knowledge that a dialect is being performed by a native versus non-native speaker of the dialect contributes to attitudes. I propose three experiments to address these research goals. Experiment 1 will test whether hearing an unintelligencharacter who speaks either a stigmatized or non- stigmatized American regional dialect in a scene from a fictional television show will shift explicit and implicit attitudes about the intelligence of an actual speaker of that dialect whom the participant interacts with in the form of a research assistant. Experiment 2 follows the same structure as Experiment 1\, but adds viewer knowledge about a speaker in the media as a variable. The viewer will be told the less intelligent speaker in the media clip is played by an actor who is either a native speaker of the dialect or a non-native performing it. Experiment 3 will test if listeners can identify whether they are hearing a native or non-native speaker of an American regional dialect.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:Smith Lecture: Going with the Flow: How Hidden Watershed Ecotones and River Flow Regimes Control Carbon and Nitrogen Dynamics
DESCRIPTION:Water is fundamental to the biogeochemical cycles of Carbon and Nitrogen because it provides connectivity among ecosystems. Water links aquifers to surface waters\, hillslopes to oceans\, and our communities to our environments. However\, there is still a disconnect between the study of most environmental hydrological and biogeochemical phenomena. This disconnect limits our ability to anticipate how global change will alter Carbon and Nitrogen cycles\, ecosystems\, and our water resources. By embracing multidisciplinary approaches that unify hydrological and biogeochemical theory\, we can move beyond these limitations and develop novel approaches that address the complex nonlinear relationships inherent to biogeochemical systems. I will draw from my research program to illustrate how coupling hydrological and biogeochemical principles can uncover important processes and emergent patterns in Carbon and Nitrogen dynamics of river networks and groundwater-surface water interfaces. Specifically\, I will discuss how δ15N stable isotope tracer experiments and numerical models can reveal the function of the “River’s Liver” (the hyporheic zone) and quantify sources or sinks of Nitrogen in our fluvial landscapes. I will also discuss new theory that incorporates the role of river flow regimes on organic Carbon export from watersheds across the United States and its implication for regional and global Carbon cycle models.\n\nDr. Zarnetske is an Assistant Professor of Hydrological Sciences at Michigan State University in the Department of Geological Sciences. Previously\, he was a Gaylord Donnelly Environmental Postdoctoral Fellow at the Yale Institute for Biospheric Studies and the Yale School of Forestry & Environmental Studies. He received his PhD in Water Resource Science from Oregon State University. During his PhD\, he was an NSF IGERT - Ecosystem Informatics Fellow in the Department of Geosciences and the Water Resources Graduate Program. Prior to receiving his PhD\, he received my MS in Watershed Science from Utah State University's College of Natural Resources\, and a BA in Geology from Colby College. He has also served as a visiting scientist for New Zealand's National Institute for Water and Atmospheric Research and a consulting groundwater hydrologist for CDM-Smith\, Inc.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:CSAS Lecture Series
DESCRIPTION:Speaker: Gurminder Bhambra\, Professor\, Department of Sociology\, University of Warwick\n\nIn this lecture\, Bhambra asks how social theory could be differently conceptualized if we took seriously postcolonial and decolonial perspectives that bring to the fore global historical interconnections. Standard understandings of modernity\, for example\, rest\, as Homi Bhabha argues\, on ‘the writing out of the colonial and postcolonial moment’. The rest of the world is assumed to be external to the world-historical processes selected for consideration and\, concretely\, colonial connections significant to the processes under discussion are erased. By silencing the colonial past within historical narratives of modernity central to the formation of the social sciences\, the conceptual architecture of disciplines themselves is called into question.\n\nGurminder K Bhambra is Professor of Sociology at the University of Warwick. For the academic year 2014-15\, she was Visiting Fellow in the Department of Sociology\, Princeton University and Visitor at the Institute for Advanced Study\, Princeton. Her research interests are primarily in the area of historical sociology and contemporary social theory and she is also interested in the intersection of the social sciences with recent work in postcolonial and decolonial studies. She is author of Connected Sociologies (Bloomsbury\, 2014) and Rethinking Modernity: Postcolonialism and the Sociological Imagination (Palgrave\, 2007) which won the 2008 Philip Abrams Memorial Prize for best first book in sociology. She has co-edited three collections\, Silencing Human Rights (Palgrave\, 2009)\; 1968 in Retrospect (Palgrave\, 2009)\; and African Athena (OUP\, 2011). She also set up the Global Social Theory website for those interested in social theory in global perspective. She tweets in a personal capacity @gkbhambra

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:Journal Club
DESCRIPTION:Martin B.H. Everaert\, Marinus A.C. Huybregts\, Noam Chomsky\, Robert C. Berwick\, and Johan J. Bolhuis. (2015). Trends in Cognitive Science 19(12):729-743.\n\n\"There are many questions one can ask about human language: its distinctive properties\, neural representation\, characteristic uses including use in communicative contexts\, variation\, growth in the individual\, and origin. Every such inquiry is guided by some concept of what ‘language’ is. Sharpening the core question – what is language? – and paying close attention to the basic property of the language faculty and its biological foundations makes it clear how linguistics is firmly positioned within the cognitive sciences. Here we will show how recent developments in generative grammar\, taking language as a computational cognitive mechanism seriously\, allow us to address issues left unexplained in the increasingly popular surface-oriented approaches to language.\"\n\nLink to the article can be found below.
